Wow, TERRIFIC SET! I think the Draped Bust is the most beautiful design of 18th and 19th century coinage.

The Small 3 is harder to find than you'd think. I am done with 1803 now.

Welcome back!
IN NECESSARIIS UNITAS - IN DUBIIS LIBERTAS - IN OMNIBUS CARITAS THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: " It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Missing only like 4 or 5 varieties on the sheet, but if I get to the RedBook, I got a bigger job. Looking for unique obverse or reverse dies rather than just different obv/rev die marriages. 1798 Knob 9s is on the list for now as is the narrow date 1802/1,
